Bull Market

A bull market refers to a period of sustained growth in asset prices, marked by optimism and investor confidence. In the context of cryptocurrencies, a bull market is characterized by rising prices across the market, increased trading volumes, and positive sentiment among investors. During a bull market, traders are more inclined to buy and hold assets in anticipation of further price increases. The bull run of 2020–2021 is a prime example, where Bitcoin reached an all-time high of nearly $69,000, and several altcoins, like Ethereum and Solana, saw significant price appreciation. Bull markets are often driven by positive news, institutional investment, or technological advancements that improve the underlying assets' perceived value. While bull markets can create opportunities for significant profits, they can also lead to irrational exuberance, where assets become overvalued and vulnerable to a subsequent market correction.
